George Perez has confirmed the latest delay on the long awaited Teen Titans: Games graphic novel.

The legendary artist explained on his Facebook fan page that his ongoing illness and scheduling issues have seen the release date of the book pushed back, reports Robot 6.

"The fault is entirely mine," wrote Perez.

"I'm afraid that [the delay is due to] a confluence of events, including my worsening eyesight which prompted the ongoing surgical procedures that I've already covered here and the bad timing of committing to Legacies before I knew that Games' deadlines had been compromised.

"I have about 25 pages left to draw and I'm hoping that, when the book is finally re-solicited (and it will be!) that it will be at least a tiny bit worth the long wait."

The release date was previously scheduled for November 3.

Perez and Marv Wolfman's story was conceived in the 1980s during their run on Teen Titans, and is set during that period.
